I think I'll start writing on Medium from time to time. If you're interested in what I might post, so am I! Prob thoughts abt writing & publishing, my upcoming story collection Greyhounds, maybe my Azerbaijani street dogs, gossip (about myself). Follow me! tinyurl.com/3uzbsvfv

I have a story collection coming out this year from a small press/traditional publisher, my 2nd book. My publisher will def submit it for prize consideration & they have a list. That said, I'm curious what prizes you all know of that my book may be eligible for. TY!

@bamideled10 Right now I'm writing a memoir. The hardest part is finding the skeleton inside the meat, the plot structure inside the experience and all the ideas and world that manifest out of and around that experience. Identifying the story that holds it together and propels the narrative.

@ESmithStevens What is the most challenging part of writing for you as an author?

Honored that my novel The Australian is on this astonishing list of recent books by @BardCollege alumni. alums.bard.edu/books-by-bardi…

Several years after my novel The Australian came out it somehow made it to paperback. Recently learned from two different friends that NYC's Three Lives & Co, one of my favorite bookstores, has it displayed face out. This is a dream come true.

@shaindelr Doing AI for one

Please explain what Macy's is doing 🙃

a lady asks us for a nickel for a terrible disease but we don't give her one we don't like terrible diseases

My daughter hand-writes her college application essays, then types them up. She plugs them into an “AI detector” like they tell kids to… and every one comes back 80%+ ‘likely AI.’ She’s been writing these all week. She’s frustrated. She’s furious. I don’t blame her.

today: the urgent and wild return of @dbarrwrites! “𝘏𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘵 𝘢 𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘱𝘦𝘧𝘳𝘶𝘪𝘵? He asks. 𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘵? All swollen lobes and seed, all dripping juice and pith.” havehashad.com/hadposts/a-lot…

@aliner Nope

Just logged onto this app for the first time in weeks. Worse than ever

i just got fired from apple. my job was to make it so finder gives you zero results even when you search exact name matches and file formats

This synopsis of my text to my brother is the only good thing AI has ever done

No I don't want to buy fake reviews of my book. I am, however, on the market for real reviews of my look.

@writingdaywksp With all due respect, when we start writing based on what kit agents think as a starting point, we're going in the wrong direction.

@HawaiianKaren who are you

@ESmithStevens Infusion of what???

Today I'm getting my big 7hr infusion. I'm so grateful to my rheumatologist. Other doctors wrote me off as crazy or misdiagnosed me. My current doctor has gone to bat w my insurance many times & treats my illness very aggressively. We celebrate improvement but we aren't done yet
